Patent number: 8363289Abstract: An image reading apparatus for use in an office machine includes a first image sensor and a second image sensor. The first image sensor is disposed in an automatic document feeder of the office machine for sensing and reading a first side of a document. The first image sensor includes a first optical module, a first correction element and an elastic sustaining element. The first optical module includes a first light source, a first light-sensing element and a glass surface. The first correction element is arranged at an opposite side of the first optical module. The elastic sustaining element has a free end sustained against the glass surface of the first optical module, thereby facilitating a close contact between the document and the glass surface. The second image sensor is disposed in an office machine main body for sensing and reading a second side of the document.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2009Date of Patent: January 29, 2013Assignee: Teco Image System Co., Ltd.Inventor: Ming-Te Yeh

Patent number: 7887019Abstract: A support mechanism is adapted to support an upper body of an electronic element, and the upper body can be turned pivotally relative to a lower body of the electronic device. The support mechanism includes a base, a plate, a transmission shaft and a torsional force generating device, in which the base is fixed on the lower body and the plate is fixed on the upper body. Furthermore, the transmission shaft is passed through and installed on the base and the torsional force generating device is wound around the transmission shaft. One end of the torsional force generating device is extended outward and fixed on the plate so as to couple the base to the plate and process a pivotal turn.Type: GrantFiled: February 16, 2007Date of Patent: February 15, 2011Assignee: Teco Image System Co., LtdInventors: Ming Te Yeh, Chien-Chung Tseng

Patent number: 7439490Abstract: A reading-line adjusting device of an image scanner includes an image sensing module, a shaft, a bush member, and a fixing and adjusting member. The image sensing module has a reading line for sensing an electronic signal of an image. The shaft is arranged in a first direction. The bush member includes a base and a bushing body. The base is coupled with the image sensing module. The bushing body is sleeved around the shaft and moved along the shaft. The fixing and adjusting member is used for fixing the base of the bush member onto the image sensing module and adjusting an angle between the base and the image sensing module such that the reading line of the image sensing module is arranged in a second direction.Type: GrantFiled: April 4, 2005Date of Patent: October 21, 2008Assignee: Teco Image Systems Co., Ltd.Inventors: Ming Te Yeh, Yun Hsiu Ou
